Mr. martinez asked ILT for PD time for tomorrow 2.28.2012 to revisit & review ESLR's. Ms. Mui suggested that since we have already taught the ESLR lessons, we as a faculty should not revise them this year. Mr. Martinez asked ILT how revisit the ELSR's. Ask teachers to provide an example of how they have been imbedding the ESLR's and how they could teach them. Breakout by department to identify ESLR's using and not using. Asses if students are getting instruction in the ELSR's across departments.
